I originally went to report this as a bug... and then found https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/309#issuecomment-895581038 almost exactly matched my repro 😅 

https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/110#issuecomment-626391063 suggests that using `NUMERIC` would avoid this overflow error, although ""If the TEXT value is a well-formed integer literal that is too large to fit in a 64-bit signed integer, it is converted to REAL."" suggests that this would come at the cost of rounding to the nearest float value.  Maybe I should just convert large integers to float before writing out my json?

After a bit more hacking, ""manually cast large integers to float"" seems like a decent solution for my particular case, but having written it up I thought I might as well post this issue anyway - I hope it's useful feedback, and won't mind at all if you close as wontfix if it's not.",140912432,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/605/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,completed

The reason this would be useful is that `MySQLdb` uses `timedelta` for MySQL `TIME` columns:

```
>>> import MySQLdb
>>> conn = MySQLdb.connect(host='database', user='user', passwd='pw')
>>> csr = conn.cursor()
>>> csr.execute(""SELECT CAST('11:20' AS TIME)"")
>>> tuple(csr)
((datetime.timedelta(seconds=40800),),)
```

So currently any attempt to convert a MySQL DB with a `TIME` column using `db-to-sqlite` will result in the above error.

I was rather surprised that `MySQLdb` uses `timedelta` for `TIME` columns but I see that [this column type](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/time.html) is intended for time intervals as well as the time of day so it makes sense.

- Default string values are wrapped in extra single quotes

I'm working with a database with music listening information. Currently it has one large table `listens` that contains all information. I'm trying to normalize the database by extracting relevant columns to separate tables (`artists`, `tracks`, `albums`). Not every track has an album.

A simplified demonstration with just `track_title` and `album_title` columns:
```ipython
In [1]: import sqlite_utils

In [2]: db = sqlite_utils.Database(memory=True)

In [3]: db[""listens""].insert_all([
   ...:     {""id"": 1, ""track_title"": ""foo"", ""album_title"": ""bar""},
   ...:     {""id"": 2, ""track_title"": ""baz"", ""album_title"": None}
   ...: ], pk=""id"")
Out[3]: <Table listens (id, track_title, album_title)>
```

The track in the first row has an album, the second track doesn't. Now I extract album information into a separate column:
```ipython
In [4]: db[""listens""].extract(columns=[""album_title""], table=""albums"", fk_column=""album_id"")
Out[4]: <Table listens (id, track_title, album_id)>

In [5]: list(db[""albums""].rows)
Out[5]: [{'id': 1, 'album_title': 'bar'}, {'id': 2, 'album_title': None}]

In [6]: list(db[""listens""].rows)
Out[6]: 
[{'id': 1, 'track_title': 'foo', 'album_id': 1},
 {'id': 2, 'track_title': 'baz', 'album_id': None}]
```

This behaves as expected -- the `album` table contains entries for both the existing album and the NULL album. The `listens` table has a foreign key only for the first row (since the album in the second row was empty).

Now I want to extract the track information as well. Album information belongs to the track so I want to extract both columns to a new table.
```ipython
In [7]: db[""listens""].extract(columns=[""track_title"", ""album_id""], table=""tracks"", fk_column=""track_id"")
Out[7]: <Table listens (id, track_id)>

In [8]: list(db[""tracks""].rows)
Out[8]: 
[{'id': 1, 'track_title': 'foo', 'album_id': 1},
 {'id': 2, 'track_title': 'baz', 'album_id': None}]

In [9]: list(db[""listens""].rows)
Out[9]: [{'id': 1, 'track_id': 1}, {'id': 2, 'track_id': None}]
```

Extracting to the `tracks` table worked fine (both tracks are present with correct columns). However, the `listens` table only has a foreign key to the newly created tracks for the first row, the foreign key in the second row is NULL.

Changing the order of extracts doesn't help.

When I was running a full text search through the Python library, I noticed that the query was being run on a different full text search table than the one I was trying to search.

I took a look at the following function

```python
sql LIKE '%VIRTUAL TABLE%USING FTS%content=%{table}%'
```

My database contains tables with similar names and %{table}% was matching another table that ended differently in its name.
I have included a sample test that shows this occurring:

I search for Marsupials in db[""books""] and The Clue of the Broken Blade is returned. 

This occurs since the search for Marsupials was ""successfully"" done against db[""booksb""] and rowid 1 is returned.  ""The Clue of the Broken Blade"" has a rowid of 1 in db[""books""] and this is what is returned from the search.

```python
def test_fts_search_with_similar_table_names(fresh_db):
    db = Database(memory=True)
    db[""books""].insert_all(
        [
            {

For example, I have a table that contains the following columns: `title`, `content`, `owner` (each row represents a document). The `owner` column is a username. It feels right to store all documents in one table, instead of having one table per owner. In particular because I'd like to full text search all documents, only documents owned by one user and documents owned by a set of users.

I tried to combine `.rows_where(""owner = ?"", ""1234"")` and `.search()` from the `Table` class but I don't think that is meant to work. I discovered `.search_sql()` as a way to generate the FTS SQL statement. By hand I can edit it to add a `AND [original].[owner] = :owner` to the `where` clause. This seems to do what I want.

My two questions:
1. is adding a `AND ...` to the `where` clause actually the right thing to do or should I be doing something else (my SQL skills are low)?
2. is there a built-in to sqlite-utils way to achieve this?

Right now I am thinking I will make my own version of `search_sql()` that generates a query that contains an additional `owner = :owner` for my particular use-case.

I would expect that `sqlite-utils insert --nl my.db mytable file.jsonl` would properly import the data into `mytable`. However, the following error is thrown instead:

`json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting property name enclosed in double quotes: line 2 column 1 (char 2)`

It makes sense that since the file is intended to be newline separated, the thing being parsed is ""{"" (which obviously fails), however the default newline-separated output of `jq` isn't compact. Using `jq -c` avoids this problem, but the fix is unintuitive and undocumented.

Proposed solutions:
1. Default to a ""loose"" newline-separated parse; this could be implemented internally as [the equivalent of] a `jq -c` filter ahead of the insert step.
2. Catch the JSONDecodeError (or pre-empt it in the case of a record === ""{\n"") and give the user a ""it looks like your json isn't _actually_ newline-delimited; try running it through `jq -c` instead"" error message.

This DB was created with the foreign key constraint `PRAGMA` enabled and a bunch of column-level `CHECK` constraints.  Is this an expected behavior? Should one not try to index foreign keys if FK constraints are already being enforced within the DB?

I'm also noticing that the size of the DB after FK indexes have been added went from 483MB to 835MB, which seems like a much bigger jump than when I've done this previously.

Ideally, the tables would get unique names by including the next path segment until the names are unique. But just making the numbered t* aliases work would be good enough.

So, the error seems to suggest there was a ""."" character somewhere in the SQL command that was causing the error. I did a little digging and found this in the docs: https://www.sqlite.org/fts5.html#fts5_strings. ""."" is one of the many prohibited characters.

My solution was to just strip these out of the query using this line
`query = query.translate({e: None for e in itertools.chain(range(0,26), range(27, 48), range(58,65), range(91,95), [96], range(123,128))})`

Perhaps this could be included into the `table.search()` function?

I googled the error and checked SO answers and advice, all good. I changed my JSON file to not use integers so I no longer get this error. Of course, that makes using the database a bit harder, so I also tried to solve the problem by modifying DB structure (while using integers in JSON).

If change all `INTEGER` Data Types to something else (`STRING`, `TEXT`) and try to import again using `--truncate`, I still get this error. I suppose I should tell sqlite-utils which columns should use non-INTEGER Data Type rather than rely on it to check my SQL table configuration.

If that is the case, can this error be a bit more specific for easier troubleshooting - maybe tell us which which record caused the problem when that error is thrown? 

My table has 60+ columns, many of which use 64-bit integers (not all records are large or known in advance), so while I can modify JSON to use strings instead of integers, it decreases usability and finding out which records have values for which SQLite integers aren't sufficient requires some work (I'm thinking about parsing all integers with `jq` and sorting output by length to identify those columns, but I'd prefer if sqlite-utils could tell me that).

  - sqlite-utils            3.14

You had two mypy errors.

The first:

> sqlite_utils/utils.py:157: error: Argument 1 to ""BufferedReader"" has incompatible type ""BinaryIO""; expected ""RawIOBase""

Looking at the `BufferedReader` docs, it seems to expect a `RawIOBase`, and this [has been copied into typeshed](https://github.com/python/typeshed/blob/9ec2f8712480c57353cea097a65d75a2c4ec1846/stdlib/io.pyi#L100). There may be scope to change how `BufferedReader` is documented and typed upstream, but for now it wouldn't be too bad to use a `typing.cast()`:

```
# Detect the format, then call this recursively
buffered = io.BufferedReader(
    cast(io.RawIOBase, fp),  # Undocumented BufferedReader support for BinaryIO
    buffer_size=4096,
)
```

The second error seems to be flagging a legitimate bug in your code:

> sqlite_utils/utils.py:163: error: Argument 1 to ""decode"" of ""bytes"" has incompatible type ""Optional[str]""; expected ""str""

From your type hints, `encoding` may be `None`. In the CSV format block, you use `encoding or ""utf-8-sig""` to set a default, maybe that's desirable in this case too?

**Background**
I was previously using sqlite-utils version < 3.6. I have a bunch of csv files that have some data scraped from a website.

```
sqlite-utils create-table mydb.db post \
    posted_date text \
    url text \
    title text \
    raw_text text \
    --not-null posted_date \
    --not-null url \
    --pk=url
```
FTS is enabled via
`sqlite-utils enable-fts ./mydb.db post title raw_text`

Data is loaded to the table via
`sqlite-utils insert ./mydb.db post ${filename} --csv`

Note that the data contains text in my language Tamil.

Loading happens just fine.
datasette serves the db file just fine. It recognizes FTS and shows the ""search"" box. However, none of the queries work. Whatever text I supply, it always returns 0 rows. I literally copy paste words from the row listing on the screen and paste it on the search box.

Interestingly, only thing  I can remember is switching to sqlite-utils 3.6. I had to do this because the prior version had an issue with column size.

I have attached one of the csv files that can be loaded to the table. Substitute ""${filename}"" with that file for the sqlite-utils insert command.
[posts_20200417-20201231.csv.zip](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/files/6176697/posts_20200417-20201231.csv.zip)

Interestingly, the FTS based search from datasette worked just fine before this version upgrade. That is, the queries returned results. I will try to downgrade just to see if the theory is correct. 

I appreciate any help here. Thanks.

Noting that using sqlite3 `import` command work without error (not using the python csv reader)
```

Sadly I couldn't see an easy way around this while using the cli as it appears this value needs to be changed in python code. FWIW I've switched to using https://datasette.io/tools/csvs-to-sqlite for importing csv data and it's working well.

One issue I had with this problem was sqlite-utils only provides limited context as to where the problem line is.
There is the progress bar, but that is by percent rather than by line number.  It would have been helpful if it could have provided a line number.

Also, it would have been useful if it had allowed the loading to continue with later lines.

I ran into a problem when trying to create a database from my Apple Healthkit data using [healthkit-to-sqlite](https://github.com/dogsheep/healthkit-to-sqlite). The program crashed because of an invalid insert statement that was generated for table `rDistanceCycling`. 

The actual problem turned out to be in [sqlite-utils](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils). `Table.insert_all` processes the data to be inserted in chunks of rows and checks for every chunk which columns are used, and it will collect all column names in the variable `all_columns`.  The collection of columns is done using a nested list comprehension that is not completely correct. 

I'm using a Windows machine and had to make a few adjustments to the tests in order to be able to run them because they had a posix dependency.

Thanks, kind regards,

Frans

I have a Django app using a MoneyField, which uses a `numeric(14,0)` data type in Postgres (https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/datatype-numeric.html). When attempting to export that table I get the following error:

```bash

Looking at `sql_utils.db.py` at 292-ish it's clear that there is no matching type for what I assume SQLAlchemy interprets as Python decimal.Decimal.

From the [SQLite docs](https://www.sqlite.org/datatype3.html#affinity_name_examples) it looks like DECIMAL in other DBs are considered numeric.

I'm not quite sure if it's as simple as adding a data type to that list or if there are repercussions beyond it.

However I thought it would be easy and useful for others to add a `recreate=True` flag to `db = sqlite_utils.Database(""binder-launches.db"")`.

My thought is that maybe the dataset grew over the last few years and so didn't run into this issue before.

No error when I reduce the count of entries to 83. Once the number of entries hits 84 the command fails.

// This passes
``` cmd

```

// But this fails
``` cmd

A potential fix might be to chunk the incoming data? I can work on a PR if pointed in right direction.

Thanks for the lib !

Obviously, every possible sql queries won't have a dedicated method.

But I was thinking : a method to delete a row (I'm terrible with names, maybe `delete_where()` or something, would be useful.

I have a Database, with primary key.

For the moment, I use :

```Python3
db.conn.execute(f""DELETE FROM table WHERE key = {key_id}"")
db.conn.commit()
```
to delete a row I don't need anymore, giving his primary key.

Works like a charm.

Just an idea :

```Python3
table.delete_where_pkey({'key': key_id})
```
or something (I know, I'm terrible at naming methods...).

Pros : well, no need to write SQL query.

Cons : WHERE normally allows to do many more things (operators =, <>, >, <, BETWEEN), not to mention AND, OR, etc...
Method is maybe to specific, and/or a pain to render more flexible.

Again, just a thought. Writing his own sql works too, so...

dfX=pd.DataFrame({'col1':range(3),'col2':range(3)})
DBX = Database(connX)
DBX['test'].upsert_all(dfX.to_dict(orient='records'))
```

But if a column is named `order`:
```
connX = sqlite3.connect('DELME.db', timeout=10)

dfX=pd.DataFrame({'order':range(3),'col2':range(3)})
DBX = Database(connX)
DBX['test'].upsert_all(dfX.to_dict(orient='records'))
```

it throws an error:

```
